Watching Bruce10 L.

This is my dishwasher repair man.  He's moving right along.  

Amira and her daughter are here cleaning away.

I am being served.

No work today so I'm just doing a little of this and a little of that.  I just sorted through all my yarn bits.  Some balls are big enough for teddy bear sweaters and some are not.  The 'nots' have been gathered into one place.  When I run out of the rest of the yarn, I'll dig into it and make a bunch of patch work bears.

madknits has me thinking about doing a scarf like he is doing - kinda.  I would probably only cast on about 500 stitches (and use yarn and needles that give me about 7ish stitches per inch).   I like the idea of having a long term, mindless knitting project that I could travel with - like to movies, etc.  The bears in progress aren't too satisfactory for on the road knitting.  They take too much stuff.  The scarf just needs yarn and needles.  

Plus, it does not take a warehouse of yarn and so I can upgrade to something way nicer than bear yarn....  Something classy to knit with for a change.  I like it.

Swim class at noon.  Staying cool.

Thanks for the blog link!

I decided I wanted the mobius strip to be 10 feet long, 5 when joined.

And it is decidedly mindless knitting. I will post progress pictures when I've got more to show.

what size needles are you using and how much yarn? It's just a great project in so many ways!

US size 3 needles (48 inch circular), and there are 980 yards of yarn.
